Double hoodie visor

ABSTRACT

Disclosed is a device that will consist of two visors attached to a frame that will connect directly to any type of hoodie or like shape device.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention concerns a protective, retractable, portable twopiece visor and frame. The intended use of this device is to reduce theamount of wind, snow, rain, sand and UV rays from coming in directcontact with the user's face.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Hoodies and similar articles of clothing are commonly used by manyindividuals in countries around the world. In weather situations suchas: rain, wind, sand, snow and UV rays, hoodies or like clothing shapeare often incorporated to protect the user's head. However, hoodiesleave the face of the user unprotected as it does not provide protectionin the front. The retractable and portable full face visor provides theuser with a physical barrier, which protects the face from naturalweather events.

Regular visors only protect the eyes and front head of the user leavingthe nose, chick, mouse, shin and neck open to weather events. Incontrast, full face cover visors protect the entire face of the usermaking the shape of the visor dysfunctional and unpractical for everydayuse. In addition, most face visors come in combination with helmets forindustrial work. Other visors have to be attached to the users head.While these designs are simple and straightforward, they suffer from animportant drawback. These types of designs impair user's effectivenessand practicality.

To address this type of issue, the retractable and portable face visorprovides user's an alternative design to better meet the user's needs.For example: going for a walk on a raining day or watching a footballgame so long that the user's face losses sensitivity due to the coldwind temperature. The retractable two piece visor protects and reducesthe direct impact to the user's face from natural weather events.

Current visors suffer from fogging due to condensation from breath ofthe user, which over time reduces the transparency of the visor. Thefull visor also restricts air flow and the half visor does not providefull protection to the face. Moreover, the visors are prone to surfacescratching which also causes impairment of the field of vision.

To resolve these problems, the new device will incorporate transparentvisors attached to a frame to help re-shape clothes with hoods. Theretractable visor will have the following standard options: Anti-foggingand UV ray protection. The retractable visors will come with additionaloptions such as: anti-scratching material, shade colors andtransitioning lenses technology.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Present inventions lack the abilities to protect or shield the full faceof the user. In addition, the current designs in the market have manydisadvantages and difficulties with portability and retraction whencovering or shielding the full face of the user.

Furthermore, the problems of visor fogging, scratching, air flow and UVrays, reduces the effectiveness of full face and half face visors. Theretractable, portable two piece visor will give user's additionaloptions to better protect their faces against natural events such asrain, sown, sand, water or UV rays. In addition, it will give users theability to carry the new device discreetly.

DETAIL DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

-   Number 1 represents the hoodie.-   Number 2 represents the connector to the hoodie.-   Number 3 represents the first visor.-   Number 4 represents the second visor.-   Number 5 represents the locking system of the visor when inside the    frame.-   Number 6 represents the locking system to hold the two visors in    place.-   Number 7 represents oxygen holes for the device.-   Number 8 represents the frame of the unit.-   Number 9 represents the head protecting cushion.

Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferredembodiment, it is to be understood that many other possiblemodifications and variations can be made without departing from thespirit and scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed.

1. The visor is sized and shaped to surround the user's face. The visoris connectable to the frame and it can be replaced.
 2. The frame of thedevice will be sized and shaped to be portable and connectable to theframe of the hoodie. The frame will surround and re-shape the hoodiecontour creating a perfect shape and grip for the visor to fully shieldthe user's face.
 3. The frame will include an upper and a lowerright/left side attached to the top portion of the frame. The upper sidewill host the retractable visor. In addition, the upper side will hostthe protecting head rest.
 4. The frame will house several connectors tolock the device to almost any type of hoodie shape.
 5. The peripheralsupport includes a multiplicity of frame connectors to reshape thecontour of the hoodie.
 6. The frame would be made from a lightweightplastic or fiber material.
 7. The frame includes a securing portion topermit hingeable connection.
 8. The first half of the visor will coverthe user's face from the forehead to the nose. The second half of visorwill cover the users face from the nose up to or near the user's neck.Once both visors are fully retracted, the user's face will be fullyshielded.
